The overwhelming impression I get from reading this account is that the US Government is very afraid of the people and are acting out accordingly.
In the video I saw of Mr. Finicum’s shooting; he got out of
his vehicle, put his hands up, and was shot dead. - He had
made a video in which he pointed out that the federal gov.
is limited in the amount of land it can legally own. Owning
that grazing land is very high-handed; looks like it was just seized in order to charge “fees” on it for grazing
“rights”. - People are too busy with their noses stuck in
the tee-vee set & sports events to ever get a clue.
That's my impression from reading this article too.
